Question

A student traces the path of a ray through a glass prism for four different values of the

angles of incidence on analysing the diagram, he is likely to conclude the emergent ray:

(a) Is always parallel to the incident ray.

(b) Is always perpendicular to the incident ray.

(c) Is always parallel to the refracted ray.

(d) Always bends at an angle to the direction of incident ray.​
